Subject: how to git-archive ignore some files?
Message-ID: <1210097731.5238.3.camel@omicron.ep.petrobras.com.br>

I want to use git-archive to create source packages, but my git
repository has a .gitignore that I don't want to be pushed into the
archive. So is it possible to keep the .gitignore file in the repository
and create an archive(*) without it? 

*) using git-archive, off course.
